I am in the process of adding scratch built details to the cockpit, hyd. lines to the hand pump, wiring harnesses etc, as the cockpit is not as detailed as the Monogram kits is.

Interior primed and painted, I am in the process of installing the Photo-etch and painting interior details.

I got the fuselage halves glued together today. Had a little problems with the cockpit area, it was the seat. Had to modify it a little.

In as well. Have icm done their usual overengineering ?? You know where they use 6 parts where 1 would have done ?? I'm sure you'll turn out a beauty either way. ππ»

Welcome Guillaume and David. @ David the only thing I have tan into so far, is that the nose for one version is 4 pieces, but the version I am building uses a one piece nose which was included in the kit.

No, actually this one is a WWII version, and I don't think the deseganition was changed untill after the war. Anyway the box says B-26-50. Thank you very much for your kind words , they mean a lot.

Thank you very much Augie and Jv, your kind words mean a lot. @Jv, yes fit was good. It is a very detailed kit as far as the engines and such go, cockpit detail is a little lacking. I added photo etch and wiring made from lead wire.
